Downtown Artist & Label Services has promoted Jeanette Porcello to Director, A&R.

In her new position, Porcello will continue to report directly to Global Vice President of A&R Bryan Mooney, and oversee Downtown’s growth in Nashville while providing creative support across the company’s roster. The announcement follows her recent signings of Drew Holcomb, Tiera Kennedy, Mat Kearney, Roar and The Crane Wives.

Porcello previously served as the company’s Senior Manager, A&R, guiding the creative direction and project vision for artists like Abbey Cone, Fancy Hagood, MC4D and REI AMI. She also oversaw the release of marquee projects, including Judah & the Lion’s The Process, Kearney’s self-titled album and Kennedy’s debut album, Rooted.

“Jeanette has been an invaluable member of our team both within Nashville and across our global roster, and we’re excited to see her step into this role with the same creativity and dedication that has earned her the trust of artists and industry colleagues,” says Mooney.

Prior to joining Downtown Artist & Label Services last year, Porcello held the role of A&R at Atlantic Records, where her first major signing, Sara Kays, went on to become a Platinum- certified artist. In addition to participating in the CMA Women’s Leadership Academy, she continues to serve on the leadership team for The Other Nashville Society.

“I’m thrilled to continue growing within the company and building the distribution roster for the Downtown Artist & Label Services team,” shares Porcello. “I love championing independent artists, something Downtown takes great pride in, and I look forward to further expanding our roster’s reach and impact.”
